Week Three of the January Event

First a huge wave out there to my new followers! Nice to see new faces in the crowd so to speak. Also a huge thanks to everyone that has taken part so far with our big Blog Give Away.

Today sees us entering week number three. Only one more to go after this week.

One of the things I love about buying handmade goods is the fact that crafters will use materials that high street stores tend to steer clear of. Not only that, but the way in which materials are used never ceases to amaze me. Felt becomes the new cotton with bags and covers popping up everywhere. Fimo and polymer go from plain blocks to fantastic keyrings, beads and ornaments and card crafters never stop at just cardboard and paper. This week is about praising the crafters cupboard and in some respects filling it. Here is what you could win:


The lucky winner will get: A Quilling craft kit, 5 x plyboard wooden hearts, 5 x red felt hearts, 3 x blocks of fimo (primary colours) and finally a gingerbread man cookie cutter. As with the past two week the winner will also receive a little something extra which we will not be featuring on the blog. It's a surprise.

To enter:

1. If you don't already - follow the blog

2. Leave a comment at the end of this post to be automatically entered into the prize draw.

Winners will be picked at random using a generator. The winner will be announced on Sunday next week. Good Luck to all the entrants! 

Please stop by 1st Unique Gifts to visit Handmade Monday to see what other talented people have been up to.

  3. Many moons ago I bought some quilling papers and that was as far as I got. Fingers crossed I win, coz then have no excuse whatsoever not to get to grips with quilling. Have a good week.
